Contest $75 dollar for payment eSports brand creation

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by Yitsy, Feb 13, 2016.

    Hello!

    I am looking to commission a logo designer for a new gaming/tech/esports brand. The payment will be $75 dollars. Whoever we pick as the final artist, we'd also want to work with you in the future for any other projects regarding this design/brand and possibly build a professional relationship with as the brand grows.

    The name of the company is Elotalk (capitalization is up to the artist), I am looking for a creative logo artist. I want you to be yourself in this creation. The more unique the better!

    Colors we like: grey, blue, white, blacks and purple
    Colors we do not like: red, lime/overly vibrant colors
    Logo feel: simple, modern, clean

    About: Elotalk is a place for competitive gaming and tech news, reviews, recaps, and more.
    Meaning: "Elo" is a form of ranking (originates from chess but has carried over to the professional video gaming world) and "talk" represents our curated community (and future forum base) that encourages discussion and collaboration.

    Deadline: No deadline until one is chosen.

    Requirements:
    -brandable icon/logo
    -text (Elotalk)
    -vector, svg exportable, also needs to work as semi-transparent white only background for branding purposes
    -access to .PSD/.AI raw file
    -access to fonts you used (.ttf file preferred)
    -professionalism

    Where it'll be used:
    -Business cards
    -Website
    -Signature
    -Social media

    I've attached some concepts that we really like.

    Thank you!

    Payment will be sent via PayPal once winner is chosen.

    @Robert Cox I like it but I'm not a huge fan of the metal font

    @Gorgon the red seems too aggressiv3

    @Kic3 Your submission isn't reaching out to me. I don't feel a gaming vibration. I feel that would be good for a graffiti artist. Could you submit something else?

    @Gorgon after a bit of review. This logo looks too similar to eharmony :(

    Suggestions: Perhaps integrate a chat bubble (to accentuate the 'talk' part of the company) in the "elo" text to make it stand out? We love the colors, simplicity, and feel of the text. Like the samples provided, we want a segment of the logo to be able to represent the brand as well (such as the discord logo without its text next to it) - so keep that in mind when integrating the chat bubble effect somewhere. Thanks!

    Can you show us some samples? It's hard to find out what you really want.

    @Kic3

    Some examples of what we like. We want some sort of gaming presence shown in the logo.

    @Angraini I love the blue/grey at the bottom right. I am not a huge fan of the red. Could we switch the font coloring with blue/grey?

    Just a suggestion for the word talk. The letter t is really close to the edge and it looks like it's clipping into it. Can we change the bubble or make the word not as close to the edge?
